I’m sorry for your loss.
However, may I respectfully ask a question? Why do you feel the desire to have her artwork tattooed on your body?
Why not have it on a canvas, or even a t-shirt? She didn’t have it on her body.
I personally don’t understand the feeling that you have to have something colored on your skin permanently. Maybe someone can explain it. I just don’t understand it.

I think Disney still prohibits cast members (in their parks) from wearing facial hair. How’s that how-do-you-do. I’d never be hired!

This is a quote from your link.

“Obviously, all tattoos are not created equal. The genre and quality of a tattoo, as well as its placement, can impact employer decision-making. But the results suggest that, in aggregate, there is no employment discrimination against employees and job applicants with various forms of tattoos.”

Yeah, well, read the next paragraph…🤣
 
Well you obviously picked an article that can’t make up its mind what it is trying to say because it ends with this:

Bans on—and bias against—body art depend in large part on the industry.

In the U.S., most people would be comfortable seeing a person with visible tattoos serve in roles across a range of industries and professions, the Harris Poll found. The levels of comfort range from highs of 86 percent for athletes, 81 percent for IT technicians and 78 percent for chefs, to lower majorities of 59 percent each for primary school teachers and judges, and even 58 percent for presidential candidates.
 
I think that’s the mark of a great article, though. It presented the research and contradictory findings. It didn’t really take a position on which is right. That’s accurate reporting, unbiased, allowing the reader to decide.
 
I agree with you. I think that 27lw is trying to make the news all bad for people with tats though, and I don’t think that’s true.
 
I just don’t think it’s 100% “no big deal” for all employers, all future In-laws, all teachers and professors, etc.
I even posted a few links that tattoos can be linked to mental illness.

Can be linked is not “must be linked”. It’s a red flag for a doctor or perhaps for a hiring manager. But come on. Ask ten people why they got a tattoo and get ten answers. And guess what? Not all mentally ill people have tattoos! I never went in for it! Sample size: 1.

And plenty of people without tattoos have mental illness too.
The links lead to other links with no information. I could not find any actually scientific method or how they did research in the links, just comments with nothing backing them up.
 
Unless they have to undress your husband would be suprised by what is under their clothes.

Many people get tattoos that are for their eyes only or chose placement with care so clothes will always cover them for professional reasons.
 
You are assuming they would even want a chance to work on Wall Street. It’s not everyone’s dream of success.

It was from a holy priest that I learned the virtue of modesty and was moved to remove my piercings for good.

Again: opinion, not Church teaching.

There are many cultures the world over, and their traditions and attitudes regarding tattoos and piercings vary greatly. This is a cultural, not a religious, norm.

Cultural, hmm.
Can you name a historically Christian culture that had tattoos as a norm?
